FF Has 'Absolutely No Credibility' On Jobs - SF
Fianna Fáil have been accused of having "absolutely no credibility when it comes to jobs" by Sinn Féin candidate for Dublin Rathdown, Cllr Sorcha Nic Cormaic.
Cllr Nic Cormaic made the comments following the publication of Fianna Fáil's job plan on Tuesday.
"Fianna Fáil have absolutely no credibility when it comes to a jobs plan for Ireland. There would have been no difference whatsoever if Fianna Fáil were in government instead of Fine Gael and Labour," Cllr Nic Cormaic said.
"We know this because the Fine Gael/Labour coalition took Fianna Fáil's five-year plan and made it their own. And this austerity agenda of Fine Gael, Labour, Fianna Fáil and the Troika played no hand, act or part in bringing about whatever recovery we are currently witnessing."
